The American fashion portal Highsnobiety made a documentary about the dominance of counterfeit products in the Russian clothing and footwear market.
“According to Euromonitor, the value of the Russian apparel and footwear market in 2016 amounted to 2,8 trillion rubles (about $ 50 million). Over the past five years, it has increased by 7,6%. The share of counterfeits in Russia has also increased and ranges from 5 to 30% in various industries. While the clothing and footwear sector is one of the largest industries in the country. At the same time, everything - from fake Louis Vuitton bags to Gucci and Adidas hoodies - can be found in clothing markets in Moscow, as well as on Instagram, where buying fakes becomes even more affordable, ”the film says.
